HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE! Well...happy 16 days until Halloween but its America I can say whatever I want dang it! Anyway, I've been wanting to do a Halloween special for a long time and know I'm finally doing it! So I hope you all enjoy!
Halloween. The spookiest night of the year. A night of ghost and ghouls and other creatures that haunted the night hours. Hours were decorated with ghost, cobwebs, tombstones, witches, cauldrons, and of course the Halloween decoration of Halloween decorations, Jack-o-lanterns.
And one of the best things about Halloween was of course…
"FREE CANDY! WOOHOO!" An extremely excited, to say the least, Pinkie Pie yelled at the top of her lungs while carrying an extra-large pillowcase with her to keep all the sweet, sweet, candy she would get tonight. And of course, fitting the holiday, Pinkie was dressed up.
Pinkies costume consisted of a full body skintight jester suit with a black and red checker pattern and black diamonds on the red parts of her arm, body, and leg. She had white frill's around her wrist and a large white collar around her neck with white balls at the end of both sides. She also had a jester had with matched the pattern of the main outfit and the tips also had white balls attached to the end of each. Pinkie had even painted her pink face completely white and had a black mask around her eyes.
"CANDY! CANDY! CANDY! CANDY! CANDY! CANDY!" Pinkie constantly cheered as she walked through the streets of Cantorlot city. While she hasn't done any trick-or-treating so far, once she met up with all her friends, she would go on the triple-time. But for now, everyone agreed to meet up at the front of Sunset's apartment building.
"Pinkie! Wait for me!" Another female voice said. Pinkie stopped and smiled as she looked back to see none other then Wallflower Blush following behind her. Wallflower was of course wearing a costume as well. Wallflower's costume consisted of a strapless one-piece suit that looked like it was made of leaves. She had long elbow length gloves that looked like they were made of vines with leaves attached to them. She had light green tights with vine patterns on them and green high heels.
"Hehehe! Sorry Wallflower!" Pinkie apologized in a sweet tone as she skipped towards the green skinned girl who had to stop and catch her breathe. "I'm just super-duper-mega-MONDO-excited for today! Halloweens my favorite holiday! The spooky decoration! The free candy! Everyone in costume! The free candy! Everyone out smiling and laughing! And of course-"
"Let me guess." Wallflower said after she regained her breathe and crossed her arms and gave Pinkie a smirk. "The free candy?"
"YES!" Pinkie said as she bounced up and down in excitement and with a giant smile on her face that shouldn't have been physically possible. "A holiday where you get to dress up, go to peoples house, and get candy! How can you top that?! Spoiler alert, you can't!"
Wallflower giggled and walked next to Pinkie while holding her own pillowcase which was brown in color and had a daisy in the middle. "Well, I'm glad your excited. Honestly with how much sweets you eat I'm surprised your not just made of sugar."
Pinkie giggled hyperly in response before grabbing Wallflowers wrist, making the girls cheeks go from green to pink, as Pinkie said. "Now come one slowpoke! Sunset's is just block away! Let's go!" Wallflower whelped as suddenly Pinkie dragged her away to the apartment building.
Thanks to Pinkie's surprising speed, they were able to get there in only 4 minutes. However, the sudden trip did make Wallflower a little dizzy and caused her to wobble around a little. "Oooooo!" Pinkie said as she pointed forward. "Looks like we're not the first ones to make it!"
Once Wallflower got her bearings and could see straight again, she looked forward to see Rainbow Dash in front of them and looking at them impatiently while rapidly tapping her foot against the ground.
"Took you two long enough!" Rainbow Dash said in an irritated tone. Rainbow Dash's costume consisted of a blue skintight suit that was sleeveless and had a beige vertical oval on the front of it. She had red shoes with white straps and gold buckles and white gloves on. She had a headband on with point ears that were blue on the outside and beige on the inside and her hair was done into five quills that went downward at the ends.
"Heh, sorry about that." Wallflower apologized to the blue skinned girl. "Pinkie just had to stop whenever she saw a decoration, she liked…which was nearly all of them."
"Sorry I can't help it." Pinkie said while sticking her tongue out cutely. "I just love looking at all the spooky stuff!"
"Yeah, should've figured as much." Rainbow Dash said with an eyeroll, but still smiled. She could never stay mad at Pinkie for long. Especially today.
Just then Wallflower looked around and failed to find a certain someone and looked at Rainbow Dash with a raised brow. "Hey, wasn't Fluttershy supposed to be with you?" The green skinned girl asked as she knew Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy planned on meeting up with everyone together.
Rainbow Dash's eyes widened a bit as she looked behind her and, sure enough, saw a lack of a yellow skinned shy girl. Rainbow Dash sighed in annoyance as she called out. "Fluttershy! Come on! You said you would hang out with all us this Halloween!"
The three of them then heard a whimper and looked to the source and saw some pinky hair sticking out from behind the bush in front of the apartment building. Rainbow Dash rolled her eyes and walked up to the bush and reached her arm inside.
A high-pitched squeak was heard as Wallflower and Pinkie looked to see Rainbow Dash pulling Fluttershy out of the bush with the yellow skinned girl offering no resistance as she simply whimpered. Fluttershy's costume consisted of a red dress with a white strip at the bottom. She had red boots with a single white strip going across it vertically, gold bracelets on her wrist, white gloves. Her pink hair was done in a long bob cut and she had three hair spikes sticking up from the front of her head.
Fluttershy whimpered as she clung to Rainbow Dash's leg with Rainbow Dash groaning in response and looking down at Fluttershy. "Come on Shy, you said you were gonna spend Halloween with us this year!"
"I-I-I-I kn-know I-I s-said t-t-that b-but I'm n-not so s-s-sure a-a-anymore." Fluttershy stuttered as she refused to let go of Rainbow Dash's leg.
"Aw come on Fluttershy! You should be excited!" Pinkie Pie said as she looked to Fluttershy with her usual giant Pinkie smile. "How can you not love Halloween! The decoration! The costumes! And how could forget-"
"The candy?" Wallflower and Rainbow Dash in unison as they smirked at Pinkie Pie.
"YES!" Pinkie Pie cheered while waving her pillowcase around. "What's not to love about this holiday!"
"All the spooky monsters. The ghost and spirits. Everyone scarring each other. Horror movies, masked murder's and blood." Fluttershy listed out as she looked to Pinkie and Wallflower with a series expression.
"Wow…way to be a downer." Wallflower said with a deadpanned expression and tone.
"Fluttershy, come on, you're just focusing on the bad stuff." Rainbow Dash pointed out. While she was a fan of horror movies and most of the stuff Fluttershy listed as bad, she was putting things in the yellow girl's perspective. "But you gotta learn to forget about the bad stuff and focus on the good. Like candy, seeing people in cute, funny, and cool costumes…spending the entire night with your friends."
Fluttershy held onto Rainbow's leg tighter and hummed a bit. "I…do like those things…"
"See! There ya go!" Rainbow Dash said enthusiastically. The blue skinned girl then grabbed Fluttershy's arm and pulled the shy girl up to her feet and wrapped her arm around Fluttershy's shoulder and pulled her close. "Don't worry. I'll be with ya the whole time. I promise nothing bad will happen."
Fluttershy quietly grumbled a bit as her cheeks brightened up and leaned into Rainbow. "…Ok." Fluttershy quietly relented and decided to go with it. Maybe with Rainbow by her side the whole time…this wouldn't be so bad. Maybe even fun! But then Fluttershy moved her mouth over to Rainbow ear and whispered into the blue skinned girls' ear and said. "But you're making up for it tonight though."
Rainbow froze as her cheeks slowly turned bright red in response. Pinkie Pie and Wallflower rose an eyebrow as they watched his happen but simply shrugged and looked to each other with a smile. They were just glad Fluttershy was going with them tonight.
"Oh! We're her darlings!"
"Sorry y'all! We got a little held up!"
The four of them looked behind them and smiled as they saw two more members of their friend group approached them. It was none other then Rarity and Applejack running up to them and both in costume of course.
Rarity's costume was a big and poufy yellow ball gown with yellow high heels that could hardly be seen and yellow sparkly gloves that went past her elbows. She had pink lipstick on, and her hair was done in a ponytail.
Applejack's costume had her wearing a lion's mane around her head and a head band with horns on them. She wore a blue suit with gold highlights, a white undershirt, and black suit pants with a single gold stripe on each pant leg. She had a blue ribbon in her hair and wore brown furry gloves with claws on them.
"Oooo! Nice costumes!" Pinkie Pie complimented as Rarity and Applejack approached the four of them with pillowcases in their hands as well.
"Thanks, it was all Applejacks idea." Rarity said as she gave her girlfriend a kiss on the cheek.
"It honestly suits you guys." Wallflower said as she looked at Rarity and Applejack next to each other and gave them a thumbs up. "Really sweet and cute!"
"Aw shucks." Applejack said sheepishly with pink cheeks and she scratched the back of her head. "Ah I was just trying to think of a nice costume paring like y'all are going and we were watching the movie together and it just popped in mah head."
"Well it was a very good idea darling." Rarity said as she put her head on AJ's shoulder lovingly. "And it was so much fun making our costumes."
"Ok, then we skip all the lovey dovey stuff tonight." Rainbow Dash said with an annoyed expression. But just then Rainbow squeaked as she felt a pinch on her rear and moved her eyes over to Fluttershy who was smiling way to innocently at her. Rainbow's face went from blue to red as she stuttered out. "A-A-Anyway, w-where the heck are Lincoln and Wendy?"
"We're over here~"
Everyone looked and saw the mentions couple crossing the street to them with Lincoln having a small smirk on his face and Wendy have her usual positive expression and smile while waving to the 6 of them.
Lincoln's costume consisted off a white Greek robe with a brown belt with a golden buckle and had red and gold hems with vine-like patterns and is fastened on the shoulder by a single gold fibula with a red stone embedded in it, along with a loose scarf. He had a brown and gold metal bracer on his right wrist, a gold bracelet on his upper left arm, and another gold ring on his right thigh. Lincoln also had brown sandals, decorated with crossing beige bands and fuzzy white trims. And on his hand was gold laurel crown and on his back were a pair of white angle wings strapped onto the robe.
Wendy's costume was also Greek styled with a white dress with a chiton-like cloth over it held by a golden necklace that acts like a fibula/brooch, heart-like patterns and a red trim at the top, golden vambraces, sandal-like heels with a tall one on her left leg and a long white sock, numerous gold ornaments to accommodate it, along with a split to her thigh on the right side held by a red fibula. She also had a gold laurel crown, a red fibula, a vine-like patterns on the hems of her dress, brown-colored, sandal-like footwear, and the various gold accessories. Strapped to her left arm was a mirror-like shield and she also held her pillowcase in her left hand because taking up Wendy's right hand was a gold staff with a blue handle.
"Woah! You two look fabulous!" Rarity compliment as she just adored the Greek theme the two of them shared.
"Thanks. Sorry it took us so long to get here. The wings were a little hard to get on." Lincoln admitted sheepishly as it took about 15 minutes for him and Wendy to properly put his angel wings on.
"Huh, I figured you would have gonna as one of your aliens." Rainbow Dash said while pointing to the Ultimatrix on Lincoln's left wrist.
"Well where's the fun in that?" Wendy said with a pout as she put her hands to her hips. But Wendy quickly went back to smiling as she twirled around. "Besides! Look at us! I'm a Goddess!"
"Was there a time where you weren't?" Lincoln said with a flirty tone as he looked up at Wendy and gave his girlfriend a loving smirk and wink.
"Aaaaw." A majority of the girls watching them said.
Wendy looked down at Lincoln with her own smirk and laughed a tiny bit. "Smooth one Romeo." Wendy said as she knelt down and gave Lincoln a kiss on the nose. "That just earned you some extra points for tonight."
"Yes." Lincoln quietly said in victory with a pumped-up fist.
"Well anyway…" Wallflower said as everyone looked to her. "Now all we have to do is wait for Sunset Shimmer and Twilight."
"What's taking them so long!?" Pinkie shouted immediately after Wallflower as she looked at the door that led inside of Sunset's apartment building. "I wanna get to Trick-or-Treating already!"
"Woah! Slow your rolls Pinkie." Applejack said as she put a hand to the pink girl's shoulder. "Being impatient is Rainbow Dash's thing."
"Hey!" Rainbow yelled in response while making a pouty face at Applejack which just served to make everyone laughed.
"They are taking a while." Fluttershy said as she twirled her hair around with a finger. "I hope they're ok."
"I'm sure they're fine Fluttershy." Lincoln reassured the yellow skinned girl. "They're probably just finishing up on their costumes."
As if on cue, suddenly the door to the apartment building opened up. Fluttershy squeaked with fright and hid behind Rainbow as they all looked to the door and saw the outline of a figured right inside. And then…
?:
That's right I've heard the story over and over again!
Suddenly everyone watched as the figured started back flipping towards them allowing them to see who it was. It was Sunset Shimmer herself in her Halloween costume. Sunset's costumed consisted of a dark magenta top with puffy pointed hot pink sleeves, puffy magenta shorts, hot pink wrist-length gloves, white stockings and a pair of magenta knee-high pointy boots. Her hair was done into two spiky pigtails and she had make-up on her face with three black streaks underneath her eyes that go down all the way to the bottom of her face. Strapped to her back was a plastic scythe with a magenta handle with a very dark magenta pole with a dark pink magenta gem on the pink of the staff and the actual scythe part being a bright pink. And to finish up Sunset's costume was a fake gemstone that was like a sticker on one-side attached to the center of her chest and was in the shape of a heart turned upside down.
Everyone watched as Sunset flipped to them and stopped once she was facing right in front of them and kept sing.
Sunset Shimmer:
Gee its swell to finally meet her other friends!
That's right I've heard the story don't really like how it ends!
Gee its swell to finally meet her other friends!
Just then Sunset dance up to Rarity and took the white skinned girls' hand and started spinning her around making Rarity laugh.
Sunset Shimmer:
What did she say about me?
What did she say?
Sunset then went up to Pinkie Pie and started shaking her around making the Pie girl giggle.
Sunset Shimmer:
What did you do without me?
What did you do?
Sunset was now in front of Wendy and started messing with her silver hair which made Wendy pout a little bit, but she didn't do anything to stop Sunset.
Sunset Shimmer:
Did you play games without me?
What did you play?
Sunset then started to walk up to Wallflower, who was smiling through Sunset's whole song, and pointed both her fingers at the green skinned girl.
Sunset Shimmer:
Did you think all this time that I wouldn't find out about you!
Oh! That's right I've heard the story over and over again!
Gee its swell to finally meet her oooootheeeeer friends!
After Sunset was done with that verse everyone put Rainbow Dash started clapping as Fluttershy said. "Sunset that was wonderful!"
"Way to nail the song!" Applejack complimented.
However, Rainbow Dash simply looked at Sunset with a confused expression and asked while pointing to her. "Uuuum, I don't get it. Whose Sunset dressed as?"
Everybody but Sunset gasped in response as they all turned to Rainbow. "Wait, do you mean you've never watched that show before?" Lincoln asked with disbelief. "Blasphemy!"
"Well, I know what we're gonna do tomorrow young lady." Fluttershy told the blue skinned girl while putting her hands to her hips.
"Uuuuh…" Rainbow Dash tried to think of something to say but was cut off as Sunset used what Rainbow said to her advantage as she smirked at the athlete and started walking up to her.
Sunset Shimmer:
Who am I? Who am I?!
What are you even saying?!
I'm the loser of the game you…didn't know you were playing!
They then watched as Sunset unstrapped the scythe from her back and twirled it around expertly before putting her thumb on a pink button on the handle.
Sunset Shimmer:
Let's play another game!
This time I get to win!
Lives on the line!
Winner takes all!
Ready or not, let's begin!
They all then watched and 'Oooo'ed' as Sunset pressed the button making the top part of the scythed start to glow in the dark and was now a bright glowing pink. They then watched Sunset did some fancy twirling tricks with the scythe and kept singing.
Sunset Shimmer:
Oh! That's right I've heard the story over and over again!
Gee it's swell to finally beat her other friend!
Oh! That's right I've heard the story don't really like how it ends!
Gee it's swell to finally beat her other…
Other…
Oooooootheeeeeer frieeeeeeeends!
Sunset then finished off by twirling her scythe into the air and doing the splits. After a few seconds, the scythe came back down with Sunset catching it and then looking to her friends with a smile and saying. "Ta-da!"
Her response was everyone clapping and cheering as Sunset stood back up and turned off the glowing feature of the scythe and strapping it on her back again. "Darling that was amazing!"
"Hehe…thanks?" Sunset said with her cheeks turning pink.
"Sorry for taking long girls, she just couldn't resist."
Everyone looked to the apartment entrance again and saw Twilight Sparkle herself coming out of the building wearing her own costume. Twilight's costume consisted of a pink shirt that exposed her stomach that had a diamond shape in the very center of the shirt and light pink gloves that went all the way to her shoulders. Her hair was done with side buns and she wore a knee length pink skirt with pink shorts underneath and light magenta stockings that stopped just a little below her shorts as well as pink flats and over the Alicorn turned humans naval was a sticker gem similar to Sunset's, only Twilight had an oval shaped gem that resembled a pink pearl. And finishing off Twilight outfit was a pink eye patch over her left eye with black make-up over the left side of her face, even going over her eyepatch, that resembled cracks over the left side of her face.
"It took us a bit to get out costumes just right and Sunset couldn't help but sing that." Twilight said with a giggle as she walked over to her girlfriend. Twilight was more than happy to spend this holiday with Sunset. Well, she was more than happy to go through the mirror to see Sunset whenever but still. And it amazed her how similar and different this Halloween was to her worlds Nightmare Night.
"Hey, it's a good song." Sunset sheepishly said as Twilight giggled and gave Sunset a kiss on the cheek.
"No arguments here." Lincoln agreed as he could never get tired of that song.
"Alright ladies! And Lincoln." Pinkie said with a giggle and getting a attention on her.
"Hey!"
"So, here's the plan!" Pinkie continued, ignoring Lincoln, as she and the entire group huddled up and let Pinkie discuss the plan. "We split up in groups of 2 to hit as much houses and get as much candy as possible! When we're done we meet at my house for trading with each other, and then we head to CHS for the big Halloween party!"
"Right!" The group all agreed at once.
"Alright, so I'm with Pinkie." Wallflower said as Pinkie smiled widely and nodded her head rapidly. "Rainbow Dash is with Fluttershy, Sunset is with Twilight, Rarity and Applejack are with each other of course, and Lincoln with Wendy."
"Sounds good to me!" Wendy agreed with her usual positive smile.
"Alright everyone, Trick-or-Treating on 3!" Rainbow Dash said as everyone gave her smirks. "1, 2, 3-
"TRICK-OR-TREATING!"
Everyone laughed after they all cheered that as Rarity said. "Well Darlings, we'll see you at Pinkies house!" They then watched as Rarity and Applejack took each other's hand and started walking away.
"Come on Wallflower! The candy awaits!" Pinkie said as she grabbed Wallflowers arm and started dragging her away for a night of Trick-or-Treating.
"Woah!" Wallflower gasped as she was whisked away by Pinkie.
"Come on Shy, you can hold onto my hand the whole time if that makes you for comfortable." Rainbow Dash said as she offered her hand to the shy girl. But instead she got Fluttershy clinging to her entire arm. "Hehe…a-alright let's go."
"Geez, Fluttershy's almost as bad as my dad." Lincoln commented as Fluttershy seem to have a fear of Halloween that could rival his own fathers fear of it.
"Come on Lincoln! We're burning moonlight!" Wendy said as she rose her staff up and started walking away.
"Hehe, coming babe!" Lincoln said as he followed his girlfriend.
"Well, guess its just as." Sunset said while giving Twilight a loving look and holding her hand out. "Shall we my lady?"
Twilight put on a flattered pose as she gave Sunset a smirk. "My, how polite." Twilight said as both her and Sunset giggled as Twilight took Sunset's hand. "I'd love to go Trick-or-Treating with my lovely Sunset Shimmer."
"Well then what are we waiting for?" Sunset said before giving Twilight a loving kiss on the lips. The two stayed like that for a minute before separated and started walking away together hand in hand and more then ready to hit every house they came across for candy.
The Halloween night was only beginning.
And there it is! This is probably gonna be 3 parts including this one so there's gonna be 2 more chapters for this and I'm excited for them. I'm curious to see if anyone can guess who everyone's dressed as. Granted they're probably super obvious, especially Sunset, but hey I'm still curious to see who guesses them all first. So I hope you guys have a spoopy day and stay tuned for the next to parts of the Halloween special.
